Rhymesayers Twitch Policy

(LAST UPDATED: August 8, 2017)

Many of you have asked us where we stand with streaming our music on Twitch. We have answers for you!

STREAMING

You are welcome to tune into the Rhymesayers channel during your Twitch streams without your VODs being muted. All we ask is that you please help show your support any way you can! There are a few ways to do this:

Should you decide to stop streaming our channel for your broadcast and want the music bot to leave your channel, all you need to do is type !leavein your own chat. **UPDATED NOTE (AS OF AUGUST 2017): Unfortunately, the dev team behind the bot is still too busy to keep up with the upkeep. For now, the bot is still on hiatus.**

If you aren't tuned into our live channel, if you can, we ask that you use XSplit or similar tools to show your viewers which songs are being streamed live.

3) Join the Rhymesayers Twitch Community! Especially now that you can broadcast to up to three different communities at the same time, we've started our own! For information on how to add it to your broadcast, click here.

VODs

As long as you are using a Rhymesayers song openly available through Twitch's music library, it will not be muted on your VODs.

Should you run into an error and find that music from these cleared playlists are still being muted in your VODs, never fear! We can help fix that for you!

If you feel your VODs are being muted from our cleared playlists, please email twitch@rhymesayers.com with a description of the problem, a link to your VOD, and what song(s) were playing. We will look into it and do our best to work with our partners to get this fixed for you.

YOUTUBE EXPORTS

If you choose to export your Twitch VODs to your YouTube channel, we will allow this, however, our policy is to run ads on this content. You will not be able to personally monetize on these videos.

CAN I USE MUSIC NOT PROVIDED ON YOUR TWITCH PLAYLISTS FOR MY GAMING VIDEOS?

There is a possibility of this, yes. However, we review these on a case-by-case basis. Please send these inquiries to our Social Media Manager, Sarah Dope, at sarah@rhymesayers.com. If you are looking to use our music for non-gaming content, you will want to shoot a licensing and use inquiry to info@rhymesayers.com.

AMENDMENTS

Please note that this is a fairly new addition to the label. As Twitch and the connection between music and the gaming world grows, we will need to adapt.

We are really excited to take part in the gaming community with you guys! Want to know more about this partnership and its initial launch? Click here.
